■Product Description
The Sikorsky SH-3H Sea King is an anti-submarine helicopter of the United States Navy.
It is a large twin-engine turbine helicopter adopted by the Navy as a successor to the HSS-1 helicopter that it had been using until then.

Because the SH-3H Sea King was developed as a carrier-based aircraft, its five main rotor blades have a structure that can be folded automatically, and the tail boom of the tail rotor also has a folding mechanism.
The SH-3H Sea King, whose main operational area is the sea, has a watertight, boat-type semi-monocoque fuselage structure, and in combination with auxiliary floats on the sides of the fuselage, it is able to perform well on water.

It is equipped with two T-58 turboshaft engines in parallel, ensuring high output and high safety in the event of engine trouble.
For anti-submarine warfare, it is equipped with the latest anti-submarine equipment such as MAD Bird and Sono Buoy. Furthermore, when fighter jets are taking off from an aircraft carrier, it is used as a rescue aircraft, and it is also used as a transport aircraft, thus being operated for multiple purposes.
